Terror attack thwarted at Karachi Naval Dockyard

.
Not really, Navy did the right job. Dealt with the situation without creating a ruckus.

I am Not Saying PAK NAVY Didn't do well, What i am saying is Taliban Missed a Great Deal of LIVE Coverage by our Stupid News Channels who show real time ground situations with their newly purchased toys "QUAD Copters" or Drones.

An attempted terrorist attack on Saturday by militants on the Pakistan Naval Dockyard was thwarted, in which one sailor and two attackers were killed, while four were captured alive.
The militants attempted to break into the dockyard, on Defence Day, after which on-duty security guards responded by firing. One Pak Bahria sailor was killed in the attack along with seven others injured.
The revelations were made by known by Pakistan Navy officials on late Monday night.
Naval Commander Kamran Asif told The Associated Press that the militants were armed with rocket launchers, assault rifles and hand grenades.
The injured did not have life threatening wounds and were treated at a hospital.
After interrogating the militants that were taken into custody, a search operation was conducted in different parts of the country in which individuals that were involved in planning the attempted attack, were taken into custody.
Authorities did not say what group the militants belonged to and no one immediately claimed responsibility.
During the search operations large caches of ammunition and weapons were seized.
The naval chief congratulated the security staff who were involved in the successful operation and commended their valor.
He also visited the injured Pak Bahria personnel and paid tribute to their courage.
Formal investigation of the incident has begun, while other law enforcement agencies have also started investigations.
In 2011, Pakistani Taliban fighters attacked the Mehran naval aviation base in Karachi. The assault lasted for 18 hours and killed 10 people.

Thing is Navy ships are bullet proof and geanade proof because of thick metal plates used in construction.

They coulnt have damaged any ships unless used RPG at close range

تو یہ کیا امب چوپنے آئے تھے؟

So there was inside help and the terrorists were of a different kind (in the sense that they intended to take the ship hostage and not just make big bangs all over the place as a statement of intent).

Secondly, they got captured, they didn't blow themselves up.

Definitely something very strange here, I'll wait for the full details to emerge, if they do emerge.

Another thing to note is the statement that "On the information received from captured terrorists, more arrests have taken place within Pak Navy".
 
.
Good thing is that the attack is thwarted. The best part is 4 rats have been arrested and according to Dunya news by information gathered by the arrested terrorists security forces have arrested more terrorists from Karachi.

Secondly, they got captured, they didn't blow themselves up.

They had no suicide jackets this time. Something new definitely.

KARACHI: A major terrorist attack on the Pakistan Naval dockyard in Karachi was foiled by security forces who killed two militants and captured four others, a top Naval official said on Monday.

One Naval officer was also killed and seven others injured in the attack that took place on Saturday, a spokesman for the Pakistan Navy said.

The attack was, however, foiled by security forces who killed two terrorists and captured four others, he said.

The spokesman said news of the attack was kept under wraps because of strategic requirements.

Operations are being carried out to capture more terrorists, the spokesman told Dawn news channel.

The spokesman only confirmed the incident after Geo News channel reported that an attack took place on Saturday morning but the Pakistan Navy had kept the incident a secret.

According to Geo News, two Naval officers at the Naval dockyard were involved in aiding the terrorists whose number is yet to be confirmed.

But a security source confirmed that the target of the attackers were Pakistan Naval ships in the dockyard which is located in West Wharf.

On June 8, ten terrorists stormed the old Karachi airport terminal building in which at least 29 people were killed apart from the attackers.
